U.S. President Donald Trump utilized his social media platform on February 9, 2026, to criticize Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX halftime performance and disparage Olympic skier Hunter Hess as a "real loser." The double-pronged verbal attack, launched from the White House following the championship game in San Francisco and international skiing events in Italy, aimed to rebuke the artist's creative choices and the athlete's recent public expressions of discomfort regarding representing the United States on the global stage. These remarks underscore the President’s ongoing willingness to engage in public feuds with high-profile figures in the entertainment and sports industries who deviate from his vision of American patriotism. The criticism of Bad Bunny followed a highly anticipated Super Bowl LX halftime show that drew a massive global audience. While the performance was praised by fans for its energy and cultural representation, the President’s social media posts characterized the set as underwhelming or inappropriate for the venue. This marks a continuation of the administration's tense relationship with Latin music icons who have historically been vocal about social issues and the treatment of Puerto Rico. Simultaneously, the President turned his attention to the world of sports, specifically targeting freestyle skier Hunter Hess. While competing in Italy, Hess had shared candid reflections with reporters about the complexities of representing the U.S. during a period of intense political polarization. Trump’s characterization of Hess as a "real loser" appears to be a direct retaliation for those comments, signaling that the administration views anything less than uncritical national pride as a personal and political affront. These incidents mirror previous controversies where the President has used his digital pulpit to influence public opinion regarding cultural events and the conduct of national representatives abroad.
